And normally we're talking about arenas.

We're talking about everything else.

But we're going to talk about the aftermath of Carolina Duke on Saturday night.

Greg, in reality, that game went about like we expected.

It ended a lot closer than i expected um but on

whole it was pretty much a microcosm of what we've seen from carolina basketball this year and

in some other years past where they get close enough have a chance to in it, and just sort of falter a little bit

at the end. Yeah, and Duke jumped out to a lead there early, and I thought, okay, is this going to

get out of hand? Because it gets really, really wild in there. It's a good place to watch a basketball

game. And Carolina really fall back.

And I thought they did a really good job of kind of settling down. Now, of course,

Luca was a little bit out of sorts. So that was a problem. But I think for the most part,

Carolina kind of withstood that initial storm that comes at Cameron.

And then you see, you know, Gongba not being able to play, I think was really beneficial.

And then you see Caleb Foster go down in the first half.

So, you know, Duke's without two starters.

And now you're thinking, all right, well, if they can make this interesting early in the second half, even without Caleb Wilson, it made me, Carolina can do something here.

And sure enough, coming out of second half, Carolina hit some big shots.

And they've got the ball down one a few minutes into the second half.

You could fill the tension in the arena.
